Both the lines seem to be contradictory to each other... I didn't get wht u meant.. u mean, that the current order is alrite, or u want the other way round? well i think the ViewNewPosts Option is the best one... Also that small arrow(ControlButton-like)serves the purpose to get u to the recent posts after ur last visit. Moreover, incase u r viewing any topic which is a 1 page topic, press END Key to take u to the bottom of the page(Quite general stuff). And if there r multiple pages to the topic u can see something like Click on the GO TO FIRST UNREAD POST... that would again take u to the post u've not read... or to the last page directly... Most users dont type a proper title/description for the thread... And thts quite obvious since they r all in a hurry... Thts where the mods step in, and change the Title Name and Description to better suit the thread. We try n ensure that nothing goes off-topic and keep the thread clean! The drop down menu is favourable in a condition where u have several things discussed in one thread itself... But in our situation, thts not the case.. Do lemme know if u have anything more to say on this.. We r surely open to ideas! Didn't find u'll at the Intro Thread... do make it a point to talk abt urself there

New govt to boost reforms: Ambani May 21, 2004 16:27 IST Rediff.com The head of India's largest business house has moved to reassure foreign investors that the new Indian government would be able to pursue reforms despite its reliance on communists for support. Citing the successful relationship between the foreign businesses community and the communist government in China, Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of the Reliance Group, said the communists in India could help deliver even better results. "International financial markets and analysts need not panic because they have dealt with the Chinese communists successfully," he said. "I can assure you that the communists in India will put them to shame," Ambani said late Thursday after receiving a leadership award from the US-based Asia Society, presented to him by Senator Hillary Clinton. Reliance, founded 46 years ago by rags-to-riches entrepreneur Dhirubhai Ambani to trade polyester yarn, has grown to become India's largest private conglomerate by sales. The corporate behemoth, which accounts for 3.5 per cent of India's gross domestic product, is now a key player in oil and gas exploration, telecommunications and petrol retail outlets. Ambani said he expected continuation of the policy by the Congress-led government of incoming Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who had laid the foundation for economic reforms when he was finance minister in the last decade. Ambani, however, believed Singh would make 'adjustments in the sequence, pace and emphasis' of reforms to reassure the poor. "A reform that fails to address the deprivation of the underprivileged cannot last for long," he said. Congress swept off the National Democratic Alliance from power by highlighting the vast disparities between the India of hi-tech industry and glitzy malls championed by the outgoing government and the bitter reality for the rural majority. "India experienced an electoral hurricane but there is a smooth transition from one coalition to another, reflecting the strength of India's democracy," Ambani said. He called for a 'grand alliance' between the world's largest democracy India and the oldest democracy the United States to 'together deal with the two biggest challenges facing humanity -- concerns for safety and security and desire for prosperity and well being.' Ambani said opportunities for cooperation between the two giants should extend from information technology and outsourcing of services at present to healthcare, university education and science and technological research. "The US can be India's partner in giving a better life to our have-nots while India can be America's partner in meeting your need for talent," he said. Hillary Clinton said the new Indian government faced various challenges, including alleviating poverty, checking a growing HIV/AIDS epidemic and providing education opportunities to a larger section of the population. She said the epidemic could become the biggest obstacle to development and progress in India, which has at least 4.58 million HIV-positive people, more than any country except South Africa.

This will remain as a common thread for both as of now, coz all u require is to tweak ur LG7130 with Bitpim n make it work for ya! Anyways, CACSUS has already put Ringtones on his phone. Maybe he can help u with it!

Oops.. i sent quite some new avatars to Arun, but i guess he's busy with his college work for some days... Maybe i'll send it to Ashok, n he can put it up here!

Well the irony of this elections is that most ppl who wanted the Vajpayee led Govt to come back, took it for granted tht he would come back anyways, and didn't vote!! Thts the reason u see less voter turnout in most of the urban cities where educated ppl opted to holiday out on a monday after a good weekend! Maybe to some extent, the EC too can be blamed for this monday factor!

Songs like Tanha Dil-Shaan, and Gabbar's videos were downloadable sometime back... they r no more on R-World, and stupid songs like GharSeNikalteHi, have been put up there!!! Wish there were better songs tht cud be downloaded! Anyways, u can find these songs in the "WatchNSave" Menu of R-Songs!

Operators can offer such deals only to corporates! and am sure Reliance might be offering such deals to corporates as well ! And Sarath, if u've got such a good deal, u shud definitely grab it!

Do u really think u require an internet connection for a voice talk with ur pals in india? After Telecom prices crashing in india i dont think thts a necessity anymore... RelianceIndiaCall n other calling cards are damn cheap. And Reliance's ISD rates in certain states r equally cheap! U can check out the following links! Speak2USA&Canada card Speak2Gulf card

Though i understand absolutely nothing out of this, I dl all wht i can from those links for u and Surojit. There are quite some links on that page which require Developer's Authentication. This is wht it read like, to get such an authentication If someone amongst u'll is ready to pull out those dollars, we can have quite something Manoj, Rest of the links i'll download n give it to u on a CD... we shall meet up someday soon

Reliance Infocomm slashes STD tariffs for FWP and FWT services DAKC (Dhirubhai Ambani Knowledge City), Navi Mumbai, May 11, 2004 In its endeavour to offer best customer value, Reliance Infocomm has slashed the STD tariffs of Reliance IndiaPhone, its Fixed Wireless phone (FWP) and Fixed Wireless Terminal (FWT) services for Intra-circle calls and Inter-circle calls to landlines by about 25%. The New Tariffs will come in to effect across the country from today May 11, 2004. STD rates from FWP/FWT to landline phones within the circle in the distance slab of more than 100 KM have been brought down to Rs.1.65 for Plan 500, Rs. 1.50 for Plan 1000 and Rs.1.35 for Plan 1500 from Rs.2.2, Rs.2.0 and Rs.1.8 respectively. Additionally, STD rates from FWP/FWT to landline phones outside the circle in the distance slab of more than 200 KM have also been brought down to Rs.3.30 for Plan 500, Rs. 3.00 for Plan 1000 and Rs.2.70 for Plan 1500 from Rs.4.4, Rs.4.0 and Rs.3.6 respectively. The reduction in the call charges is due to the increase of pulse duration for Intra-circle calls from 30 sec to 40 sec and for Inter-circle calls from 15 sec to 20 sec in the above mentioned distance slabs. All other call charges remains unchanged. "With this Reliance IndiaPhone will be one of the most economical telephone services in India with an unbeatable value proposition for all user segments. It also offers wireless Internet Access service (R-Connect service), which is not offered by any other basic telephony service provider," says Mr. S P Shukla President (Wireless Products and Services), Reliance Infocomm. The numerous features of the Reliance IndiaPhone include two way SMS capability, caller line identification, speakerphone, record of missed calls with timestamps, history of dialed and received calls, voice mail, phone book capable of storing up to 99 numbers, choice of 10 ring tones and three-way conference call capability. Customers can just walk into any Reliance WebWorld with proof of identity and residence and walk out with a ready-to-talk phone.

So send him over ur handset to do the R&D Anyways, its quite difficult to crack into a Samsung Handset!

rimweb.com !! Seems as if Mr. Mukesh is reading our posts

U r true Arun... But as both of them work absolutely on the same network n technology, though named as different, they are both absolutely identical in usage terms!! One is sleek n the other is bulky... thts the only difference! And Reliance is taking advantage of this, and named it FIXED WIRELESS PHONE! When only the label says that its FWP, it suddenly becomes a landline, n u get dirt cheap rates(Local Calls) on it!! Thats like being damn smart, to fool TRAI and get it under the Landline Category n offer low rates!

Me too, switched back to the older one!

I used to find some problem with uploading Avatars earlier, n i realised that it was due to the cache or cookies saved on my computer or ISP. Coz even after changing the avatar it would not be shown up... but on once loggin off n then loggin in back or deleting the cookies on my system, it showed up well !

Thts wht i pointed out.. was there something wrong in it? And secondly, is anybody questioning me whether am a moderator or not? Dont feel offended dude(I know where u hail from), But theres nothing wrong in standing corrected! And Harsh, i too wanna know wht conclusion did the service centre guys finally reached to? Are any updates to Samsung N191 released?
